I just want to give a poem I made...

The Burning Sky, September 11:

Those who shared their sad and grief,
Those who understand, the things I believe.
I can't say how much this should pay,
But wait until the day terrorists retaliate.

Should I wait? Or should I stay?
Making words hard to say.
I wouldn't want to stay away,
From the harsh reality terrorists had made.
Try and understand, the things I said,
It made us strong, a difference it made.
We believe, this isn't fate.

This Isn't peace.
Not, I believed.

Right before, the sun rised high,
September 11, the buring sky.
